Hi Peter
O.K. Thanks.
We should not take this patch via netdev, since it is outside of
netdev, even if it does break netdev. So lets polish the patch a bit,
and then repost it to linux-pm and its maintainers.
Please could you add a Fixes: tag. Can you figure out which commit
broke it, or has it always been broken?

you would not do this, but for linux-pm, i guess it is needed.
Change the subject a little. thermal: Fix broken registration if sensor OF node

When you post it, please Cc: me, netdev, davem, but make the To: the
three thermal maintainers.
Thanks
Andrew
